Horror-Business-Cover

Armed with a passion for classic B-grade horror movies, a script co-written by his twin brother, and a wicked crush on his death-obsessed neighbor; hardcore horror fan Jason Nightshade must finish his student film.

.

But his plans are derailed when the children of suburban Silver Creek start disappearing – his twin brother among them. Battling a possessed video camera, a crazy zombie dog, a monstrous bully, and a frighteningly broken down family life, Jason embarks on a mission to find his lost brother so the two can write an ending for his story.

.

As any horror fan knows, saving the day won’t be easy, as Jason finds himself forced to face the real world where death isn’t just a splash of fake blood on a camera lens.

WHAT READER’S ARE SAYING:

“Horror Business is, more than anything, an old-school horror story, digging deep into King’s meticulous nostalgia, processed through the postmodernism ofScream, filtered at turns through the nerdiness of Dawson’s Creek and Super 8, and then drenched in the blackness of a teenage boy’s brain.” – Keith McLeary, Author

“What the author really captures here is not just a skin-crawling tale of monsters. He shows us where the real horror lies, in the awkward development of children into teens, the fearful uncertainty.” – Matt E. Lewis, The Radvocate

“Horror Business combines intelligence and entertainment into a particularly creepy read.” – Jennifer Bardsley, Author

Fingers-in-the-Mist-Cover

Sixteen-year-old Caitlyn Foster never believed in the legend of the Redeemers. That was before the trees started to whisper her name. Before a murder of crows attacked the town. Before she and her family came home to find a bloody handprint on their front door, marking one of them as a sacrifice. As Caitlyn’s friends are ripped from their homes, she knows it’s only a matter of time before the Redeemers come for her. Caitlyn has the power to stop the terror, but she’ll have to decide if she’s willing to sacrifice herself to save those she loves.

fundinmental would like to welcome Dell Hutchison and Fingers in the Mist

The title made me curious and I love the cover. Here is the author’s take on it.

Welcome, O’Dell. I am so happy to have you on my blog today.

GUEST POST

.A good cover is very important, and I always had an idea of how I thought the cover for this book should look. The funny thing is, the end result was nothing like I’d originally pictured – it was better. Simple, creepy and very atmospheric, it perfectly captures the essence of the story. Authors and publishers often go through several iterations of covers. It’s kind of like looking for a wedding or prom dress. Sometimes it takes a while to find the perfect look and the right fit. Fortunately, that wasn’t the case with Fingers in the Mist.

.I received the concept cover over a year ago, and it didn’t change much. I suggested adding a few blood spatters to give it a more sinister vibe, but aside from that, the artwork didn’t need any enhancements. It was a very simple process. In fact, I think we spent more time deciding on a font for my name than the artwork itself. I love how it all turned out.

Thanks for having me on the blog today!

So, let’s check out the book and be sure to enter the giveaway at the end of the post.
